You understand how institutions work and are adept at navigating institutional politics and power structures. Additionally, you bring clinical expertise to the PSFC organization with practical experiences in clinical operations to strengthen our due diligence on clinical trial grant proposals.
As the ideal candidate for the role, you are a strategic thinker, a self-starter, and enjoy building and nurturing relationships. Passionate about psychedelic science, you have stellar communication skills and stay up to speed on trends and opportunities in the psychedelic field. And as a member of a small, dynamic organization, you are grounded, direct, clear, kind, and a team player.
Specific responsibilities include the following:
- Devise a partnership strategy to work with medical and academic institutions (e.g. Veterans Affairs Medical Centers, top universities, etc.) to build out psychedelic centers of excellence for clinical practice and training
- Identify and source high-potential institutional prospects through research, strategic outreach, and relationship-building to cultivate new partnerships with academic researchers and institutions
- Build trusted relationships and champion collaboration with stakeholders in psychedelic medicine
- As a grantmaker, evaluate incoming grant proposals and provide due diligence on organizations conducting clinical trials
- Evaluate Investigator Initiated Trials (IITs) on alignment with internal strategic priorities for clinical practice and training
- Introduce IITs to sponsors who may be able to provide scientific input and or drug product
- Connect IITs to sponsors who may be able to provide scientific input and/or drug product
- Build a framework and engagement playbook for clinical partnerships
- Manage tools to maintain a real-time snapshot of relationships and forecast future opportunities
- Coordinate with other members of the PSFC team and handle a portion of our shared administrative tasks
- 5+ years of experience in business development, partnership management, or management consulting
